Meet the newest “Pocky Girl”, Japanese idol and actress Shiori Kutsuna (忽那汐里). Born and raised in Australia, the 15 year old cutie was selected to be the 50th generation Pocky Princess. The same distinctive honor was also given to popular Japanese idol actress Yui Aragaki a couple years ago which greatly helped boost her to stardom.

The new series of Japanese confectionery Pocky commercial began airing in the beginning of this month

The U-15 teen idol moved to Japan 2 years ago to pursue her showbiz career and currently belongs to Japanese entertainment agency powerhouse Oscar Promotion (オスカープロモーション).

Shiori got her first major break when she received the Special Recognition Prize at the 2006 All Japan National Girl Beauty Contest (全日本国民的美少女コンテスト). She followed up that good fortune with an appearance on J pop unit Orange Range’s video “Oshare Bancho” featuring Soy Sauce. Shiori has also landed a role on Fuji TV’s drama “Taiyo to Umi no Kyoshitsu” / Homeroom on the Beach Side (太陽と海の教室) this past summer along side with Kii Kitano.

Heheh is this going to get me in trouble? But there’s no nudity so we can all enjoy without feeling guilty! For all you lolita, younger sister type lovers out there…here’s former U-15 Japanese gravure idol Yui Koike (小池唯). Presently 17 years old, these shots are from Yui’s first photobook titled “Yui 14 Years Old ~Secret~“.

Lord have mercy! Could he have made Japanese idol Minami Minegishi (峯岸みなみ) any cuter?! The extremely popular U-15 (under 15) AKB48 Team A member is one of its original members. I don’t usually follow AKB48 but I can picture myself going to a concert of the popular Akihabara based Japanese pop idol group just to get a glimpse of this cutie pie!

Seriously, I think staring at those huge innocent eyes and her petite, cheeky face for more than a few seconds will lead to possible cardiac arrest! Japanese idol pimping machine Up To Boy (アップトゥボーイ) ran this spread of Mii-chan when she was still a junior high school student.
